5th annual mexico mission trip

 i've probably said this before, but the mission trip to mexico gets better every year!  we had such a great experience this year and the trip was truly life-changing. 
the first day we were there was our trip to real de catorce for shopping and relaxing.  we decided to ride horses this year and were so glad we did!  this was not your average "nose to tail" trail ride.  instead they basically sent us up the mountain and said "hang on."  

 the scenery was amazing as we rode to an old mine town. 

we got to explore the old mine and hang out with friends.

 i love that my whole family can enjoy the mission trip together.
 looking for bargains.
 jack found a spider man hat for $4.

the remainder of the trip included going to hospital for witnessing and singing, visiting homes in town, vbs in local villages, and bilingual worship services.
 this gal was such a joy to be around.  she always made me smile.
 the guys dug a hole for a sewage line one day.
 the green team.  the boy on the end stole my heart!
 jack didn't quite make it through one of the vbs meetings. 
 jack played a soldier in one of the skits.
 mackenzie and reese were angels guarding the tomb.
this is one of the women's meetings that was held in nearby village.
it is such a blessing to be a part of dayspring missions outreach in mexico!
the best part of the trip was about midnight on tuesday when reese gave her life to Christ!
